Graham Lindsey “TradHead”

Canadian Folk Music Awards Nominee!

Graham’s album “TradHead” was just nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award, for Solo Instrumental Artist of the Year!

This album has 13 tracks featuring 25 original tunes by Graham Lindsey plus one traditional song (“Wild Mountain Thyme”). The CD features full-colour artwork and track listing, plus it was designed to be as low-waste as possible: no plastic wrap to throw away, and a piece of cork to hold the CD securely in place.

From Away is a Trad/folk trio with captivating original sounds and its roots in tradition. They feature a new blend of voice, fiddle, guitar and gorgeous Canadian hand-crafted mandolins will take you back and forth between the timelessness of the prairie folk singer and upbeat jigs and driving reels.
